station, or can be supplied pre-programmed.
• Compatible with industrial tiller handle wigwag throttles such as the Curtis Model ET-190E.
• Simplied troubleshooting and diagnostics.
• Industry standard Molex Mini-t Jr. logic connectors and heavier duty M5 threaded
busbars for battery and motor wiring.
Smooth and Secure Control
• Advanced speed regulation maintains precise speed over varied terrain, obstacles, curbs
and ramps.
• Linear cutback of current ensures smooth control with no sudden loss of power during
undervoltage or overtemperature.
• Proprietary algorithms help prevent gearbox wear while providing smooth starts and reversals.
• e vehicle is brought to a complete halt before the electromagnetic brake is applied,
ensuring safe and secure stopping under all conditions.
• Charger inhibit input prevents driving while the charger is connected.

loads such as starting on a hill, crossing thresholds, climbing obstacles, etc.
• Hydraulic Li Lockout functionality to protect the vehicle’s batteries from damaging
level of discharge.
• Dynamic pot fault detection (open/short wiring fault detection).
• Push input and a Push-too-Fast function which ‘loads’ the motor to prevent excessive motor
speeds when the EM brake is o.
Highly Flexible I/O
All I/O pins are multi-function and can be congured to provide up to:
• 13 digital inputs
• 6 analog inputs
• 1 potentiometer source
• 1 speed limit input
• 2 active low 2A drivers
• 1 active high or low 2A driver
